We walked a while longer and then we stopped. There was a huge statue of a gargoyle right in front of us. 

"Every Flavor Beans" Harry said and I was shocked when I saw the statue move and stairs started to appear.

Harry walked up a few steps, then turned around and said "Are you guys coming or what?" I ran up the few steps it took me to get to Harry and took his hand again.

When we came all the way up I saw a big door. Harry knocked on it three times and a voice answered "Come in it's open." 

Harry opened the door, "Professor Dumbledore?" he called out but I didn't hear if the professor answered back because I was to busy looking around the room, it was so... odd... well maybe not odd, it was kind of beautiful in it's own way.

It was big, circular room and full of funny little noises. 

"Hello, who are you?" An old man with a long white beard. - Professor Dumbledore I presume - asked me and I lost my train of thought.

"This is Emily Dursley, she's my cousin and she doesn't know how she came to be here... She told me that she just woke up in the Forbidden Forrest. Can you help us figure it out, sir?" Harry answered for me instead.

Professor Dumbledore just looked at me, and then at Harry and then at me again. "Well, I don't know how you came to be here but lets check something". Then he handed me a stick.... I mean it was a stick... seriously!?! 

I looked at Harry and was expecting to see that he was at least smiling but he was looking quite serious. "Do you really think she's a witch?" Harry asked and I thought that he might be crazy. "I don't know but we can at least let her try something." Dumbledore answered.

 He then turned to me, took out another one of the things he gave me and said "Repeat after me", then he pointed the stick at a book, then he did some kind of a hand movement and said "Wingardium leviosa"  

My jaw dropped, the book that he had pointed at started to levitate. I looked at Harry and he nodded at me, so I did the same thing that the Professor had done "Win...Wingardium leviosa" The book that I had pointed at levitated just like the professor's did.

I was so shocked that I didn't know what to do so I just looked at Harry. 

He was smiling, the smile that was my favorite from when we were younger. "Well now we know, Emily Dursley is a witch." Professor Dumbledore said.
